Was great!

After reading Sheedy's prior books, I knew this would also be good & it was. It was hard to put down.

Wow!

I love this author, and her skills as a writer. I almost envy her wit, and the way she can make a complex story come to life. When I first heard about this book by E.C. Sheedy I made sure I put my copy on order right away. Her books are rare, I think, and she doesn't come out with many as quick as some other authors do. She takes her time, I think, and the end results are always amazing! With this book, I have to admit it was hard at first to get into. All these characters were thrown at me at once and I wasn't really sure which way to go. So, I kept reading, and reading, and reading and I fell in love with the book. Again. Like always. And then to come and think of that THIS WAS APRIL'S STORY! She is Gus's sister from "Killing Bliss", and "Over Her Dead Body." I didn't know that at first. I read Gus's story so long ago, and I remember he had a sister he had been trying to find for a long time, and her name was April. I just never put two and two together until I read April say something about her brother she hadn't seen in so long. Wow! I was shocked, happy, and thrilled by the end of the book they finally get to meet each other! Joe Worth, I fell in love with from the beginning. He was this man who was thrust into the family life by his pretend to be sister, and finds his actual real half-sister, Cornie, along the way. But my heart really went out to Phyllis Worth, and her long-lost romance. It was so great to read she finally went back to him, and they fell in love all over again. I would say that was my favorite part of the book. Their old romance. Bottom line, this book gets better and better as you read it. Go "read" for yourself!!

Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye

April Worth has seen the dark-eyed man. She knows what evil is. April was nine when she was rescued from hell on earth by an angel, an angel who taught April that families are made not born. To get her angel back she will do anything; remember what hell on earth was, and even break a promise she swore she would never break. Joe Worth protects people for a living. With his morning coffee he reads his horoscope, and it forecasts trouble. When he sees the scared woman with the legs that just didn't stop, he knows he has a client. She hits him with a job that hits him in the gut. April is making it personal; she wants him to find the mother who abandoned him as a child. It pulls him in and could cost him all because he has to stop a killer, a killer out for vengeance. A killer who has a dark, sick past that he wants to keep in the past. Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye grabbed me from the first page and kept me reading till the end. The characters are engaging and well developed. The action is fast-paced and enjoyable. E.C.Sheedy adds some excellent twists and turns in the plot. I recommend this book, I could not put it down once I picked it up. Barb Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

exciting tense one sitting romantic mystery

Over two decades ago Phyllis Worth rescued nine years old April from the dark eyed man who hid her in an unlighted basement. Phyllis raised the frightened April as her own. Now Phyllis is missing fleeing for her life without a moment's notice. She left behind a quickly scratched note warning April to hide as the dark eyed man seeks her. April still fears her bogeyman, but needs to insure Phyllis is safe. She turns to Joe Worth to find Phyllis and keep both females safe. Joe wants to say no to sad eyes as Phyllis is his biological mother, who deserted him years ago. However, he cannot leave April at the mercy of a deranged serial killer who wants to use Phyllis to get to his intended target; besides which he has instant heat that she reciprocally makes hotter. The dark eyed killer who in many ways remains in the shadows of a nightmarish memory steals the show of a superb erotic romantic suspense thriller. E.C. Sheedy uses the family link to bring the lead couple together, but plays down the soap opera in order to provide a strong complex mystery. The lead couple is a fascinating likable pairing as he needs prove to himself that he is worthy of her trust by keeping her safe more so than completing her request to save his mother. Readers will kiss the day away reading this exciting tense one sitting romantic mystery. Harriet Klausner

Awesome Read

I have just finished this book and I had to let you know how good it is. It is great!!! IF you have read her other book OVER HER DEAD BODY you will recognize April as the sister of Gus. She was sold by her mother to her drug dealer when she was 9. Gus has searched since then for her. I adored OVER HER DEAD BODY and KISS TOMORROW GOODBYE is wonderful. April Worth has lived with Phyllis and Cornelia Worth most of her life. Phyllis rescued her from her buyer's house when she was a little girl and raised her. When Phyllis had Corny 15 years ago April was there to be a big sister to the little girl. She will do anything for them. April has gone to college and is working as an apprentice to a designer. Phyllis, whom she calls her mother, works at a design house with a friend, since she no longer works as a showgirl. April loves both Corny and Phyllis and now Phyllis is missing. April approaches the one man who may help her find Phyllis. He is Phyllis's older son, Joe Worth. Phyllis left him in an ER when he was three. Joe is a Bodyguard. He and a partner have their own business and the last person he wants to hunt for is his long gone mother. But Alice tempts him and when he finds out he has a sister he has never known about, he decides he needs to find his mother and tell her just what he thinks about her. How hard can it be to find his mother? As Phyllis is on the move, the killer is after her because only she knows where April is. He needs April to be able to blackmail the man who sold her, who is now a big wig with alot of money. Joe is certain there is a connection between Phyllis running and what happened to April and the deeper they dig the more they find out about his mother's life. Everything started with the death of one of Phyllis's former lovers. We are led on a wild and wooly ride to reach Phyllis and save her and April from a date with death. The romance was wonderful and the story touching. I loved it. Just what romantic Suspense should be. Do not miss it.
